    Max Fairchild as Wendys Father. Desiree Smith as Shirley. Before Anthony Hopkins decided to make a career out of mugging his way through the Hannibal Lecter movies, he made this terrific little film about a small family-owned business that hires an efficiency expert to assess their finances and employees.

    What sets this aside is the warmth and compassion of the characters involved, who are all well-drawn and interesting, with good relationships to each other. Treading occasionally on Local Hero territory, this film is a gem and deserves as wide an audience as the overrated Hannibal the Cannibal splatter-fest. Hopkins is a brilliant actor when seperated from his Jack Nicholson moments, and shines in this movie.

    The Efficiency Expert () - Rotten Tomatoes

    The cover is misleading, though. Didn't capture the characters accurately. Caught a brief look at a rare exhibit of a carefree, effusively happy Hopkins character. His characters are usually so reserved.

    One of a small number of Burroughs' novels set in contemporary America as opposed to a fantasy universe, The Efficiency Expert follows the adventures of Jimmy Torrance as he attempts to make a career for himself in Chicago. The book is remarkable for the criminal livelihoods of the hero's friends.

    It was also admitted to be a fictionalization of Burroughs' own difficulties in finding a job prior to becoming a best-selling writer.

    The Efficiency Expert

    Though written in , it was first published in the October edition of the All-Story Weekly magazine. The first book publication was by House of Greystoke in Jimmy Torrance, football player, boxer, socialite, athlete and all-around Big Man On Campus, is nearly kicked out of university, but upon pleading for a second chance, he is granted one and successfully graduates.

    Spurning an offer from his father to come work for the family business, he determines to make something of himself first, and repairs to Chicago. However, nothing comes of his many attempts to find work, and he despairs. Friendship with a pickpocket known as "The Lizard" cheers him up and he reapplies himself, finally finding work in a department store. He also makes the acquaintance of a young lady of quality, one Elizabeth Compton. Torrance gains and loses a number of jobs in rapid succession, including ladies' hosiery clerk, waiter, boxer, and milkman, chancing to meet Elizabeth and her friend Harriet Holden in most of these occupations.
